Hark! The Herald Angels Sing is a Christmas carol that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. The song's lyrics were written by Charles Wesley, an English Methodist leader, and the music was composed by Felix Mendelssohn. The carol reflects on the joyous news of Jesus' birth, as announced by the angels to the shepherds in Bethlehem. It proclaims the arrival of the Savior and invites all to join in praising God for the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. The song is often sung during the Christmas season as part of religious celebrations and festivities.
